What is that call then? Dort and Caruso can do whatever they want, that ain't basketball

I don't know why Bradley is playing. He clogs the paint. It's wild to me Carlisle is changing the rotation in Game 5 of a playoff series when the rotations have worked the past 2 games.

Lesser of two evils. Bryant isn't built for this level of game.

JDub is the difference maker in this series. We got this if he keeps playing like this the rest of the game and another game after that. I don't think he's really reliable so we never know with him.

Okc is trash without the refs

Locking in OKC -13.5 live bet (since Vegas does not want my bets to win and i want an Indiana Pacers comeback) LOL

I'd like to see a reply of the play where Dort knocked into McConnell. It happened so fast that I wasn't sure what to make of it.

He just looks for offensive players who are moving and not looking at him. He charges into them and falls backward. It's very effective.

Yeah Dort can just go under and aim low with the shoulder on someone's knees.... OKC's ball. Gotta get that line any means possible

TJ is the most specialized specialist in the league

TJ turning into Kyrie

Jailblazers7 · Post #479 » by **Jailblazers7** » Tue Jun 17, 2025 2:26 am

And so the momentum shifts - a brutal series of misses for OKC and TJ seized the opportunity

OKC going cold from 3...

Who seizes a commanding 3-2 lead?
